Shopping Union Makes a Difference

We make choices every day about how we spend our hard earned dollars. On average union workers have better wages, benefits and working conditions than their non-union counterparts. When you have a choice, why not shop at a place where you know employees have protections and a real voice in their employment conditions.

Grocery/Retail Stores
United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) represents thousands of workers in union stores like Fred Meyer, Safeway, PCC, and many others. Check out the full list of union stores represented by UFCW 21. http://www.ufcw21.org/know/shop-union

Bookstores
Do you like to order your books on-line? Maybe at Amazon? Well, here’s a better choice, Powell’s Bookstore is local and its union (ILWU) http://www.powells.com/. The next best thing would be to frequent your local bookseller.
